Decision details
This approval will allow a 0.11-hectare triangle of land to be transferred to the neighboring property owner. The severed parcel, with driveway and storage sheds, has approximately 25 metres of frontage on Long Lake Road and a depth of 98 metres in Robillard Unincorporated Township, District of Timiskaming.
The application was reviewed for consistency with the environmental policies of the Provincial Policy Statement 2020 (e.g., natural heritage, water quality protection). The decision to approve the consent is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and will not have a significant impact on the environment.
One member of the public telephoned the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing with information about the common-access purpose of the block from which the severance will occur. The common-access rights will be maintained over both the severed and retained portions of the block. No public concerns regarding the proposal were identified, otherwise.
The applicant has two years to satisfy conditions, otherwise the approval will lapse.
